LA Dodgers defeat LA Angels 6-2. It took a National League team to give Ervin Santana his first loss. Blake Dewitt led things off the scoring in the second inning with a questionable two-run homer. It looked like a fan had interfered with the ball, but the umpires ruled the ball a home run. Chan Ho Park got the start for the Dodgers and fortunately Tim Belcher was not in attendance. He had a rough fourth inning giving up two runs one of which were earned thanks to some very shoddy defense. Hong-Chih Kuo came in the fifth inning and shut down the Angel's momentum.

Chivas USA defeat DC United 3-1. It really did look like another one of those games when DC United scored a goal in the 30th minute. Things were looking pretty bleak heading into the final 20 minutes, but Chivas scored three goals within nine minutes to step on the necks of a bad DC United team. Hopefully this is a sign of things to come from this team.
